No.5 Samsung Galaxy S20 FE

The handset comes with an excellent display with a 120Hz refresh rate, delivers flagship performance, and offers best-in-class cameras as well. While the build quality might have room for improvement, considering most users like to use protective cases on their phones, Samsung Galaxy S20 FE is a unique value-for-money option in a relatively high price bracket.

No.7 Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro Max
Redmi Note 9 Pro Max fills in the shoes as the brand’s mid-range flagship phone, and it justifies the title extremely well.

The phone makes no compromises when it comes to processor, display, camera performance, and even battery backup. Although you don’t get a high refresh rate to get in slightly more expensive phones, the Note 9 Pro Max is an all-rounder that gets the job done.

No.8 Xiaomi Redmi 9 Prime
Redmi 9 Prime came like a breath of fresh air in the market that was disrupted by the price hikes due to a change in GST rates in India. The handset is priced below Rs 10,000, but you get a quad-camera setup, an excellent processor, good battery life, and even fast charging support with the Redmi 9 Prime. While Xiaomi was losing its charm with the aggressive push from Realme and Samsung last year, Redmi 9 Prime put the brand back in the driving position for this price segment.

No.9 Realme C3
Remember the times when you had to compromise on various fronts when buying a budget phone? Realme C3 is a testament to the fact that times have changed. With Realme C3, you get a premium-looking handset that offers a clean UI and a fullscreen display view. The handset even manages to offer 2-day battery life, a feat that is matched by few phones in the market regardless of the price range. The camera department could have been better, but you can only point this out if you forget the retail price of this phone in the first place.

No.10 Oppo Reno 5 Pro 5G
The Oppo Reno 5 Pro 5G is also very slim and light, measuring 7.6mm in thickness and weighing 173g. The flattened top has a ‘Designed for Reno’ inscription, while the dual-SIM tray, USB Type-C port, and a single speaker are on the bottom. Build quality is also outstanding, despite this phone having a plastic frame, and the rear cameras barely protrude at all.
